What does YOUR uname say?

Question

Short story: I need to write a PHP script which finds the correct OS type from uname (eg: both wince and winnt would return windows). See here for more info.

Shouldn't this be a community wiki?

Yes but...see here.

How to help: If your OS is not listed below, please run this code and share your findings:

<?php
    echo php_uname();
?>

It's interesting to note that even when certain conditions match exactly, uname still produces different results.
